A little bit of this, a little bit of that.

My "summer" is drawing to a close. I put it in quotes because A, it hasn't been very sunny and warm at all; and B, it hasn't been a TOUCH relaxing! I can't wait for school to start again so I can have some down time!

Just a little peak of what I did this summer!

Went to New Orleans in June to visit with my older sister's future family:
Me in the French Quarter on another sunny day in New Orleans!
It was my first time EVER going to New Orleans. It is absolutely beautiful there, with so much to see and do!

Had a wonderful 4th of July with my family and boyfriend:


Some of our fireworks

Eric and I having a little fun :)

Using long shutter speed, we had people run around us with sparklers. It was very fun :)

Got her married off in July at the Seattle Temple and had a great reception:

Mr. and Mrs. Steckler
My Dad and I on Hillary's wedding day



Went to New Orleans again for a second reception:
The family in Jackson Square on a rainy day

Hillary and Nick at the New Orleans Reception

Site Seeing in the Lower 9th Ward

Got some spare time for a little photography at Greenwood Cemetery in New Orleans

Worked a lot:

Feels like I never have a spare day to do the rest of the things I need to do (packing, cleaning, hiking...)

Got some really cute shoes:


I <3 These!


Made the Dean's List:
At Southern Utah University, the top 10% of the school is added to the Dean's List. I made the cut! Apparently my name is circling around Southern Utah newspapers. Too bad I am not there for that (and for some sunshine)!!!

And last but not least, LOTS of economics:


A slightly awkward homework assignment....

A nice little graph :P
 Basically, economics has been a lot harder than I thought it would be. I can't even tell if it is making me smarter! It is almost over though. I am a little worried about getting that A I really wanted (right now I have an 89.6) If I get A's on my last 3 assignments we should be golden. It just keeps getting harder and harder!


Now the only thing left is to tackle August!
